Redirecting to another website in PHP is very simple and straightforward. Just by using the PHP header function and the the URL where to you want to redirect as a parameter, you can accomplish this task.

Here's the example below.

<html>

<header> <title>PHP Redirection</title> </header>

<body>

<?php $url= "http://www.joelbadinas.com/";

/* Redirect browser */ header("Location: $url");

/* Make sure that code below does not get executed when we redirect. */ exit; ?>

</body>

</html>

To use this script, just copy and paste it to your favorite PHP/HTML text editor, save it with a .php extension and put it in you web server. When you run it, you will be redirected to this blog.
